Ecological Ovens - Eritrea

During the last period central government of Eritrea carried out precise financial measures in order to better control the “parallel market” and this produced a raising in the cost of living. This is why in the last three months also the cost of an ecological oven raised up to 220 $.

But we have a good news too: at the end of the Renewable Energy Match Funding Campaign (5^th September – 10^th October 2016), thanks to all of you, we collected 4,900$ with which we’ll have the possibility to provide approximately 20 "Mogogo" ovens to likewise families.

Receiving an ecological oven for each family is important for many reasons; thinking about children (Aleimar main focus) ecological "mogogo" ovens are the best choice because, being energy efficient ovens, they would contribute to reduce wood consumption by fifty per cent, so that gradually tackling one of the main causes of deforestation. Additionally, the new ovens produce a minimum amount of smoke eliminating the home pollution and several consequent diseases. All this can improve the standard of living of many families.

We deeply thank you not just because you made this problems resolved by funding the construction of these ovens, but also because, thanks to mogogo, families discovered another way of socialize, not only inside their house but also with other people of village, building these new ovens together.

Families we helped together proved us that a change for them is possible and we can make it happen again and again!

Thank you once more for your last support, hoping it will last!
